The governor of Sonora, Alfonso Durazo Montaño, led the nationwide launch of the ‘Housing Program for the Well-Being of Sonora’ in the municipality of Cajeme. This program aims to deliver 33,800 homes in the state and one million throughout Mexico.
During the announcement, the state leader, accompanied by Edna Elena Vega, Secretary of Agrarian, Territorial and Urban Development, informed that 4,767 homes will be built in Sonora in the first six months. Durazo emphasized the need for considerable resources to meet this goal and announced collaboration with the National Housing Program to achieve it.
Out of the 12 plots identified in Sonora for the project, 11 have received the corresponding approval, which are located in Ciudad Obregón, Hermosillo, Navojoa, Nogales, San Luis Río Colorado, and Agua Prieta. This milestone was described by Durazo as a historic day for both Sonora and the entire country.

For his part, Rodrigo Chávez Contreras, general director of the National Housing Commission, emphasized the collaboration between different levels of government in the beginning of the construction of 324 apartments on a single plot in Cajeme.
